Description

In 9 patients with nonclassic 21-hydroxylase deficiency (201910) associated with HLA-B14;DR1, Speiser et al. (1988) found a change in codon 281 from GTG, encoding valine, to TTG, encoding leucine. Speiser et al. (1989) concluded that this codon 281 mutation is a consistent change in nonclassic 21-hydroxylase deficiency associated with HLA-B14;DR1. The val281-to-leu mutation (V281L), found in association with the HLA-B14;DR1 haplotype, accounts for 75 to 80% of nonclassic 21-hydroxylase deficiency (Mornet et al., 1991). This mutation was observed in several patients by Wedell et al. (1992), who referred to it as VAL282LEU.

In an analysis of steroid 21-hydroxylase gene mutations in the Spanish population, Ezquieta et al. (1995) found that the most frequent mutation causing the late onset form of disease (present in 15 of 38 patients) was val281 to leu, found in 18 of 30 chromosomes (37%). This mutation is found in 34% of all cases of the nonclassic type (White et al., 1994).

In samples from 2 patients (1 with a cortisol-producing adenoma and 1 with an androgen-secreting adrenocortical carcinoma), Beuschlein et al. (1998) detected the heterozygous germline mutation val281 to leu in exon 7.

Description

The p.Val282Leu variant (NM_000500.7 c.844G>T) (also referred to as p.Val281Leu in the literature) in CYP21A2 is a well-established pathogenic variant and has b een reported in numerous individuals with non-classical congenital adrenal hyper plasia (CAH) (Marino 2001, Ezquieta 2010, New 2013). This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#12151), as pathogenic. This variant has been i dentified in 2.0% (175/8588) of Ashkenazi Jewish chromosomes by the Genome Aggre gation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs6471), althou gh data at this locus may not be reliable due to high homology with a pseudogene . In vitro functional studies indicate that the p.Val282Leu variant may impact protein function (Tusie-Luna 1990, Barbaro 2015). In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for non-classical CAH in an autosom al recessive manner based on observations in individuals with this disease and f unctional evidence. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3 (upgraded to strong based on multiple occurrences), PS3, PP5 (Richards 2015).

Description

The well-known c.844G>T (p.Val282Leu) missense variant is frequently observed in individuals affected with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (GeneReviews: Nimkarn et al., 2016, , Eziquieta et al. 2010, Stikkelbroeck et al. 2003, Skordis et al. 2015, Ramazani et al. 2008). New et al. (2013) reported that 98% (n = 497) of individuals with Non-classical CAH harbored this variant and its frequency was very high in affected individuals from the Ashkenazi Jewish population. Although this variant is associated with non-classical CAH, individuals with classical CAH were also found to have this variant (New et al. 2013). Functional studies found that co-expression of this mutant protein and wild-type (WT) protein results in a dominant negative effect on the enzymatic activity of WT protein (Felix-Lopez et al. 2003). Other studies indicate reduced enzyme activity with the p.Val281Leu allele (Wu and Chung 1991, Haider et al. 2013). The variant is observed in the population databases at a frequency below expected for the carrier rate based on prevalence of disease (ExAC, 1000 Genomes, ESP). Reputable clinical labs have interpreted this variant as pathogenic (Partners HealthCare and Ambry Genetics). In summary, this mutation meets the criteria for a Pathogenic variant for Adrenal hyperplasia, congenital, due to 21 – hydroxylase deficiency. We have confirmed this finding in our laboratory using Sanger sequencing.

Description

NM_000500.7:c.844G>T in the CYP21A2 gene has an allele frequency of 0.023 in Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The p.Val282Leu variant (NM_000500.7 c.844G>T) (also referred to as p.Val281Leu in the literature) in CYP21A2 is a well-established pathogenic variant and has been reported in numerous individuals with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), in trans with another pathogenic variant (PMID: 21609351; 20661889; 23359698). In vitro functional studies indicate that the p.Val282Leu variant may impact protein function (PMID: 24953648). Taken together, we interprete this variant as Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3_Strong; PS3; PP4.

Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change(ClinVar ID: 65610, PMID: 20301350) - PS1. The p.(Val282Leu) was detected in trans with a pathogenic variant (PMID: 23359698; 24953648; 25041270; 20301350; 28359061) - PM3_strong. and allele frequency is greater than expected for disorder -BS1. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic.

Description

The variant is observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/) dataset at total allele frequency of 0.552%. However, frequency data for this variant in the general population cannot be distinguished from that of the CYP21P pseudogene, and are therefore uninformative in assessment of variant pathogenicity. Functional studies provide strong evidence of the variant having a damaging effect on the gene or gene product (PMID:20661889, 21609351). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.31; 3Cnet: 0.78). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000012151). The variant has been observed in multiple (>3) similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID:20661889, 21609351). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Val282Gly) has been reported to be associated with CYP21A2 related disorder (PMID: 10720040). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

Description

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (MIM #201910) and hyperandrogenism nonclassic type, due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (MIM #201910). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from valine to leucine (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0305 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) >=0.01 and <0.03 for a recessive condition (1504 heterozygotes, 2 homozygotes).

Description

A Heterozygous Missense variant c.844G>T in Exon 7 of the CYP21A2 gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Val282Leu was identified. The observed variant has a minor allele frequency of 0.00528/0% in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is medium, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score . Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. ClinVar has also classified this variant as Pathogenic (Variant ID: 12151). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CYP21A2 function (Karlsson L et al., 2019). This variant is frequently observed in individuals affected with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines.
